In reply to the discussion: James Holmes is NOT a Gun Nut!!! Got that??? [View all]jp11
(2,104 posts)43. No it looks like someone doing a cosplay of an umbrella soldier from Resident Evil 2 or 3
really 2 is where you'd see this 'guy' with the collapsible baton.
Oh and about James being dressed like a gun nut the media reported he was dressed like a swat team member so I guess they are all gun nuts with the ballistic helmets and the body armor much like soldiers and even 'regular' police that military up in that kind of gear.

Actually, no! I think I can take him, though. Looks like a scared cat with that stick.

Me neither. I guess when you're an asshole you live in fear someone is going to hunt you down.

Pretty damn close. The center shield is a red cross though. Maybe it's a rank designation.
